Default AQs to push or not to push...that is the question

Caesar's Atlantic City $1/$2 NL Hold'em


Hero (UTG): $440
UTG + 1: $65
MP: $550
MP2: $375

Preflop: Hero is dealt A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (4 Players)
Hero raises to $15, UTG calls $15, 2 folds, MP calls $15, MP2 Calls $15, four folds.

Flop: ($63) Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4 Players)
Hero bets $40, UTG+1 all-in for $50, MP raises to $80, MP2 calls $80, Hero???
<font color="red"> Total Pot Size: $313, Main Pot: $253 </font>

I am fairly certain that I have the best hand but is this an automatic shove? I think I am ahead but afraid that I am beat. MP is a loose player but gauging from how he is playing I think he would raise more to protect his hand if he had me beat. MP2 only plays with made hands and has been raising ungodly amounts when he hits....so what is my line here? I am getting great pot odds here so I can just call and hope to hit another card (Ace may complete a straight however), which i think is a mistake? How much should I raise here or should I just shove? What's my line from this point forward?

fold no way you are ahead her looks like mp has k10 or set and mp2 could have a draw or top pair, cant see you winning imo

Try to come up with four different two card combinations higher than 9, that don't have you crushed/flipping. Pretty tough huh? Muck em!

well look at the odds im getting here...you think I should fold here??? Like I said MP is a loose player and may be raising to get me off the hand. I am getting 7.5:1 in pott odds here. You really think I should just lay it down? MP2 may have me beat but I'm not that sure.

odds dont come into in this situation you are losing with all the ranges out there looks like mp is trying to keep you in the hand and the over call could even have you crushed

Call and then fold to a turn bet, unless you improve, but don't even think about raising here.

dont call and fold to turn bet 95% of the time there will be a bet on the turn, just fold on the flop.
